HT1414 I have forgot my restriction pass code and can't delete apps to enable me to update software

I can't update to iOS 7 as need to delete data but have forgot my restrictions pass code so it won't work ....help

If you have a backup that was created before you entered the passcode you can restore from that backup to remove it from the iPad. If not, you have to restore the iPad as new in order to remove the passcode.
You may have some success finding the passcode with a third party app like this.

You have to either:

- Restore to factory settings/new iPod

Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- You can get some photos back if you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

HT201304 I forgot my restriction pass code , how do I retrieve it or change it?

I have forgotten my restrictions pass code. How do I retrieve my pass code or how can I change it. Thanks

There is no way to retrieve it. You have to restore to factory settings.
Restoring from a backup will simply restore the restrictions passcode that you cannot remember - unless in the unlikely event that you have a backup that predates the restrictions passcode, then you could restore from that backup.

I cannot remember my restriction pass code, and I don't know how to retrieve it. Can someone help me, I'm new to this stuff!!

I set a restriction pass code, and when I tried to use it, it says it's wrong. But I had to put it in 2x so it can't be wrong. And I just set it this morning, so I didn't forget. It just won't let me in.

iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212 - Learn what to do if you have forgotten or can't remember your passcode, or if your device displays a message saying it is disabled.
If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected (or the device was never connected to a computer) you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)

I forgot my ipad restriction pass code now I can't turn it off or delete or install any new software updates if anybody can help me know if there is another way to turn that feature off?

There is no way. You must restore the device as new. You can only restore a backup you made prior to when you put the restriction code in place.

HT201269 Forgot my restrictions pass code!! Help!

How do you retrieve restrictions pass code if you forget?! New device and number due to switching phone carrier and restored from iTunes but having major issues! Seems to have me logged in on both devices and after 3 hours at retail store still no changes! Help!

You cannot retrieve the restrictions passcode. If you have forgotten it, then you can only restore the phone as new. The passcode is in the backup so restoring from a backup will only put it back.

I have forgotten my restrictions pass code on my ipad 2. I've made 20 attempts to remember. How many more will I get? There is no way I'm wiping it. It's is just ridiculous. Why can't they find a way to re-set it for you!?!

I'm certain I have actually entered the password I chose as I have only 3 that I ever use. I have now tried 20 times and not guessed it. I did not realise that restricting adult content would mean I can't use any apps that use adult content occasionally, e.g I assumed I would still be able to use BBC iPlayer but that it would not be possible for my daughter or anyone else to access programmes of an adult content. Wrong. It stops you from using the app at all just because some programmes have that content. In true Apple style there was no warning of this beforehand. Just as there was no warning before I set the passcode that if I forgot it, I'd have to wipe the device. I'm getting pretty fed up with Apple all told. When I my first iPhone fell into a drain it took 3 hour long calls from London to California just to get my photos back on the phone when they should have been there automatically. It then took 10 months to recover the music which should have again been there automatically.
Please, does anybody know how many times I can try guessing the passcode before something awful happens, like it wipes the content anyway? I only really use the iPad to watch tv and now I can't even do that! My apple devices have caused me nothing but woe. The whole system is so unbelievably un-user friendly.
Any advice very welcome indeed.
Thanks

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

What do I do to get into restrictions if I forgot my restrictions pass code

I have forgotten my restrictions password what do I do?

You will have to restore from a backup made before you created the restrictions password. The restrictions password is saved as part of a backup so you have to go back to before the restrictions. Or else restore to factory condition and then reinstall apps you have purchased/downloaded and setup all of the account information for things like Mail, etc.

iTunes: Restoring iOS software
Learn how to use iTunes to restore your iOS device.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring:
Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes.
Back up your device.
Transfer and sync content to your computer.
Restoring your iOS device
Connect your device to your computer.
Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes. Select the Summary tab, and click the Restore button.
Click Restore.
After a restore, the iOS device restarts. You should then see "Slide to set up". Follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant.
If needed, restore your device from a previous backup.
If restoring does not finish successfully or if a restore error appears, see iOS: Resolving update and restore alert messages.
Additional Information
If your device is continually restarting, not responding, or showing the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar, place the device into recovery mode and try restoring again.
Devices with cellular service should activate after a restore. If activation is not successful, see this article.

I forgot my iPhone pass code and now I can't backup my phone

Last night I changed my pass code due to privacy reasons. Then when I went to put it in today it didn't work. I tried and waited patiently whilst it was disabled. Then I accidentally disabled it again and now it must be connected to iTunes. I don't mind having to restore it but I want to ensure I don't lose my photos. When plugged in to iTunes it tells me that for it to access it to respond from iPhone, which for obvious reasons I can't do. So I need some help! Please I am a teenage girl who basically lives on her iPhone so pleaseeeee help!

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
See Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
After you have Recovered your Device...
